List of Flashcards5 flashcards
- Card 1HintThink 'in-FORCE-ing' contraction.Memory TipInotropic = increased heart muscle force.
- Card 2HintThink 'chrono' as in 'chronological' or time.Memory TipNegative Chronotropic = Decreased Heart Rate.
- Card 3HintThink 'fight or flight' response.Memory TipCatecholamines constrict and increase heart rate.
- Card 4HintThink 'arrhythmia' means irregular heart beat.Memory TipAnti-arrhythmic = Regular heart rhythm.
- Card 5HintRelated to malaria treatment historically.Memory TipQuinidine: derives from cinchona plant alkaloids.
